**Coordinator, Northern and Indigenous Sustainable Energy Initiatives**:
At the School of Environment and Sustainability (SENS), we value and foster relationships with partner organizations and communities. The mission of the Energy Security stream of the Master of Sustainability Degree program (MSs) is to empower a network of northern, Indigenous, remote, and career professionals through distance education and purpose-driven practical experience to lead sustainable community energy development. Demands are growing for community energy planners in First Nation, Métis, and Northern communities and this program provides graduates with the skills to lead the development of energy projects that provide renewable energy options and maximize social and economic benefits to local communities.

The Coordinator, Northern and Indigenous Sustainable Energy Initiatives provides administrative support 1) to the SENS Energy Security program, with a focus on building community partnerships and on student recruitment and retention, across Yukon, Northwest Territories, and Nunavut, and 2) to fundraising efforts for SENS Energy Security program and public engagement activities, with a focus on building stakeholder relations with federal, territorial, and Indigenous governments and agencies, as well as industry and utility partners.

The work is demanding, multifaceted and often time-sensitive.

This position requires an open mind, innovative thinking, good judgement, good communications skills, and a strong commitment to creating an exceptional student experience. The position also requires an ability to collaborate effectively, forge beneficial partnerships, and an awareness of the culture and practices of the First Nation, Métis, and Northern communities with which the work will be done. The successful applicant must be adept and highly effective in representing the School and University in many different settings before different audiences.
